That's the one I got, but from a uk supplier. Tested it indoors works fine, just a bit large though, I think M-A8's camera suggestion is better, should have waited.

Another random idea - if the rear view mirror has enough room inside maybe a small camera can be installed within, and a small hole drilled in the plastic housing? I know its not ideal to drill the original trim.
I mentioned before to someone about fitting a lense In the rear view mirror and have a raspberry pi with a hard drive in the glove box, but what I'll be thinking about it to take the housing off this camera I suggested earlier and fitting all the bits inside the rear view mirror
